That's insane...

You'd be mad to buy Microsoft Games outright now, for the price of a single new title you can almost get 6 months of gamepass, so if you'd buy two games from them a year... it works out... and with everything else included...

Unless omeone just prefers physical discs.

I prefer physical discs, but I prefer 10 dollars a month over physical discs :P

I honestly would rather pay full price than 10 bucks for digital only.

I am already 100% digital on PC and Switch and now also XBox so my only physical games will be on PS4, where I don own a single downloaded game but when they offer a simulair service with the same value I will switch over to digital only, money > plastic cases

I'm just going by comments Spencer made here: 

“Shannon Loftis and I are thinking a lot about, well, could we put story-based games into the Xbox Game Pass business model because you have a subscription going? It would mean you wouldn’t have to deliver the whole game in one month; you could develop and deliver the game as it goes.”

I think I'd want the subscribers personally. They're more invested into my ecosystem if I were Microsoft. 

I think your taking the comment out of context. 

What Phil Spencer is saying with a service like Xbox game pass which is a subscription, it could really benefits from having story-based games. So let's say Microsoft get a studios to make episodic games like life is strange or Telltales Games. People could come back every month for new content. It wouldn't have to be a major release like Halo 6 and long wait time between new games or in this case episodes. 

Games like Halo and Forza would still have major release but there DLC could be tied to game pass. If Microsoft release free DLC for games that are on game pass people would come back to the subscription service. 

 

I think you're similarly taking the comment out of context for whatever reason you think that I did.



 I have a gaming channel! Come watch me be bad at games :)

This is the problem I have come in contact with.  If I am logged into the Xbox X using my primary account and my Son wants to play a Minecraft which was purchased with my Account on the Xbox One.  In order for him to play Minecraft, my account needs to be logged into his machine.  That's a problem since it will log me out on the X.  If I am playing a game, using a service like Crunchy Roll or Nextflix, they will stop working.  

Make his machine the home console for your account. He now has your Gold privileges, and access to anything you’ve bought digital, without you needing to be logged in. Now make your account always sign in on your X. Done. My brother and I share games this way.

My cousin and I do this and it works for just about everything except certain DLC.



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

Doing will mean basing judgements on physical game sales will be obsolete... good.

I honestly see no value in this personally. But kudos for those that do.

This is great news for the consumer, and MS will undoubtedly make a decent chunk of change off of it, but it really doesn’t bode well for Xbox hardware.

Uhmmm... If this is good for consumers, if it becomes a success, then whats the problem?

I think its worth considering they might get more software revenue for this and maybe create more games. Ofcourse thats a best case scenario.

Microsoft sold me on the Xbox One X with this deal. Went out to Gamestop on Saterday, and picked up the X with a Play and Charge kit. Been playing Sunset Overdrive all week. If they stick to the promise of keeping all Microsoft Studios games on the service going forward, I will be subrscribed for life. Excellent move Microsoft.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
